With all the BS swirling around I reached out to an old friend.
I am like most guys in that I have alot of guys in my past that I sort of keep some touch with at times, but it could go months between calls.
So I called him last week and left a message. A few days later having not heard from him and having a chance to be in his area I called him again. I come to find out that he never got the first message. This is not the first time that his wife, who met him after we were friends, has "forgotten" to give him the message.
Now I like this woman I think she is great for him. My buddy is a guy who could easily have graduated college, he easily could be making a real great living in a suit and tie, but he just never got a break and ended up maybe going to one year of college when you add it all up...sort of like my wife. His wife on the other hand graduated college, got her Masters, fell into a great 6 figure salary position with people that treat her like family. In a few ways they are almost the couple on KING OF QUEENS.
But she just never liked me.
He once told me she feels i am a bad influence...a bad influence? This guy is a classic flirt, thought about cheating long before I did, and may have even done it once or twice. If anything he is a bad influence on me! But as a grown man I think I am past the stage where peer pressure and bad influences are really an issue.....
Just recently I think I lost another friend to a his girlfriend saying I was not someone she wanted him talking to.
I need to ask ladies:
You love these men.
You think that they are great guys and you trust them.
Then why must you pull them away from their friends?
I mean sure, if the friend is a drunk or an addict or something, that I get. I mean would you like it if we said who you can and can not hang with? No. And most men never do this. Why do women feel that it is OK?

I recently went to a funeral with David and there were alot of his friends there that he hadnt seen for years. Why? Because his last 'girlfriend' told him she didnt like them and gradually he just drifted away from them. I would never do that and cant understand women who do. So yeah...I'm one woman that doesnt think its okay...and it narks me too xx

Ooh err...I wrote that under Dave's name...he'll love me for that. Mind you, he'd agree I'm right! Haha x Oh dear...he seems to move from one bossy girlfriend to another...but I have the edge because I'm carrying his boy and because I 'let' (dont even like saying that) him see his buddies whenever he wants - its nowt to do with me! :-) Im not here to take over his life - just to be a part of it xxx

I agree. I don't think you should keep your man from his friends... He needs them like girls needs theirs. I think that alot of females know the power/influence that friends have over friends therefore through their insecurity they manipulate their men away from they're friends. My ex tried to keep me from my friends, it was because he was insecure.

Truth be told......I think it has something to do with your present situation. Your friends could have said something to their significant other that was meant to stay " just between the guys".

Nubian: would agree if this was a new situation w/ her or if he even knew of my current issues. But he has no idea, so she could not either. And this was true well before i was married

I don't think I'll ever tell my boyfriend who he can and can't meet.

White Knight, I think that if she knew about your current issues she would makes sure that your friend would chose her instead of you. Either way, relationships like that do not last becuase usually the one that is doing the pulling away has something to hid and they want to keep it in the dark.
